Surveillance and Target Acquisition
The Army's Surveillance and Target Acquisition (STA) regiment, and a singleton regiment - the only unit which provides the capabilities we have. We have a constant commitment to deploy one sub-unit every six months as the Theatre STA Battery. On operations, the Theatre STA Battery acts as the eyes of the troops on the ground.
